    1Cor 14:27a . . If anyone speaks in a tongue, two-- or at the most three --should speak; one at a time

    People with the gift of tongues are not permitted to speak all at the same time like a mob of howling political activists. That just simply isn't permitted in church.

    1Cor 14:23 . . So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and some who do not understand, or some unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

    One of the reasons why I get so annoyed by talk shows like Kathy Lee Gifford and Hoda Kodb, and ABC's The View is because everyone talks all at once like a bunch of undisciplined dogs barking and yapping in a kennel. And the way they interrupt each other back and forth before the other can even finish a sentence is one of the very things we teach children not to do. You'd think those supposedly mature adults grew up without supervision the way they conduct themselves in a conversation.

    People with the gift of tongues are to take turns; speaking one at a time, rather than an entire congregation of tonguers barking and yapping like dogs in a kennel whenever they "feel the Spirit" moving them.

    FYI: The fruit of the Spirit is self control (Gal 5:23). People claiming to feel the Spirit really ought not to behave like a cage full of excited monkeys.

    1Cor 14:33 . . For God is not a God of disorder but of calm.

    1Cor 13:8-10 . .Whether there be tongues, they shall cease; yada, yada, yada, yada.

    God introduced tongues during the Tower Of Babel incident recorded in Gen 11:1-9. He did that to break up world unification. Apparently it was God's judgment that world unification in those days was not a good thing. Well; the language barrier remains in place today; so I'm assuming that world unification in our day is still not a good thing.

    In other words: today's world is an imperfect world. But according to 2Pet 3:1-13 and the 21st chapter of Revelation, a new world order is on its way; a perfect world that can be trusted with global unification so there will be no need for a control measure to thwart an all-out proliferation of evil.

    But until that perfect world is up and running, there will continue to be a need for the gift of tongues so that Jesus' followers can fulfill his edict to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to everyone everywhere." and to "Teach them all things whatsoever I have commanded you."

When we don't know what to pray for, the Spirit knows exactly what to pray for, and we yield to Him in tongues in order to pray what we don't know to pray. He HELPS US pray those things we don't know to pray. As far as expressing love for one's wife in tongues, not a good idea because SHE doesn't understand it, but GOD does when you speak in tongues. So perfectly appropriate toward God.

    You're really not going to get very far here with your error/ignorance of what tongues are all about. But your posts are good for us to spring-board off of to explain correctly. So if you just be quiet and quit posting about this, and read and try to understand our responses, you might actually just learn some truth about tongues. :)
    Spot on Fuego! Everything you've said. I've been attending a Church pastored by Ken Stewart for the past several months. He's been teaching as the main text, on 1 Corinthians 14...Verse by verse. It's been extremely enlightening and revelatory. I've gotten so much out of this chapter in the past few weeks than I have in a very long time. Many of us in the Church are ministers and this increased revelation we're receiving, I believe is preparing us for deeper intimacy with the Lord.
    When your praise match your prayers, the answer will come.

    If you're serious about learning about the proper use of tongues, I encourage you to watch this video. This is part 8 in a series by Pastor Ken Stewart. You can view all 8 teachings if you like on YouTube. It takes a minute or two to start.

    Yes, that's really out there. I never would've thought anyone on this Forum believed that way about tongues. Unbelievable.

    THE Ken Stewart? When I went to rhema in '79-'80 he was the Dean! I even saw him here in Atlanta not long after I graduated or I can't remember it might have been before I went, and he taught on every gift of the spirit one by one in detail. And I bought the whole set of tapes. He must be really old now. lol.

    God introduced different earthly languages at the Tower of Babel. 1 Cor. 14:2 is another tongues entirely. Two totally separate things. Again, because you don't know what diversities of tongues actually is, you can't understand it.

    As you said he broke up the language "to break up world unification". But the confusion and breaking of unity that happened by breaking up the language, He has now restored through supernatural heavenly tongues. Now when all us Christians speak in tongues we are totally unified because we are all speaking according to the perfect will and wisdom of God. We are all "speaking the same things" as Paul by the Spirit instructed us to.

    1 Cor. 1:10
    Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

    If he is, he sure don't look it! I should look so good at his age! LOL
